The 899 North Capitol Street NE Building constructed in 1969, is a 323,961 square foot office building located on the outskirts of downtown Washington, DC. The building is owned by the CIM Group and managed by Akridge. The ownership and management companies became interested in LEED certification after obtaining ENERGY STAR building certifications for the building in 2007 and 2008 and contracted with Leonardo Academy in July of 2008 to perform a LEED Assessment to explore what would be needed to meet the LEED-EB requirements at varying certification levels. After much consideration, it was determined the building would strive for LEED Silver certification with Leonardo Academy providing consulting services. The LEED-EB implementation effort began in December 2008. The project had a three-month performance period that lasted from August 1st, 2009 to October 31st, 2009. The building was awarded LEED-EB: O&M 2009 Silver Certification in June of 2010. With the LEED Silver Certification of 899 North Capitol Street NE Building, Leonardo Academy has now worked on 50% of the LEED-EB Certified buildings in Washington, D.C.Key Project Information
